Mount Sumagaya is a mountain on the northern section of Mindanao in the Philippines. It is under the territorial jurisdiction of the municipality of Claveria, Misamis Oriental. It stands at a height of about 2,248 metres (7,375 ft).[2]

It is part of the Central Mindanao Cordillera that stretches from Camiguin in the north to Sarangani in the south. The mountain rose to prominence after the crash of Cebu Pacific Flight 387 on its slopes in 1998, one of the deadliest aviation incidents in the Philippines.
